Indian team complains about bland Australian food

all wine of the same colour tastes the same.

Anyone spending money on very expensive wine is a moro..... connoisseur. I meant a connoisseur.

Look, with all due respect, you wouldn’t ****ing know

 

[Victor Ian]

Wine, like beer, is an acquired taste. Acquired taste is another way of saying 'if you drink enough piss, you get used to it'.

I can't taste the difference between expensive and cheap wines. But then again, neither can experts in blindfold tastings. But I'm sure you're right nevertheless.

im going to get so smashed on italian wine in 3 weeks.

Just make your own wine ffs

Anyone who thinks beer > wine is a brain dead moron. Fact.

Anyone who drinks beer by choice other than at the end off very long, hot day on the cricket field is a ****wit. Drinking beer other than at those times is ***** level ****wittery.

Got some pear wine on the go at the moment.

The blackberry wine from last year was pretty lethal stuff. Enjoyable but deadly.

Drivel

What’s your wine of choice Burgey?

Your posting in here reminds me of the ‘Live Tory Vote Labour’ mantra I’ve seen expressed on twitter

Nothing wrong with appreciating the finer things in life though. I largely drink red wine these days, beer is mainly for football. Real ale mainly.

I suppose it depends where you are drawing the line. Anyone who can’t tell the difference between, say a £3.50 bottle of Tesco branded ‘Italian Red Wine’ and a Rioja has probably got no taste buds.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

If it isn't a Sour or a Double IPA it ain't worth drinking.

Haha, yeah not that cheap. I try to find something between $15-20 usually. Have only had expensive wines a few times. Mostly courtesy of work and rich uncles.

Sours are gun.

Some doubles are beyond terrible though, if they're not well balanced then it can just taste like a mouthful of potpourri

Flagstone Dragon Tree - The best red I've ever had. Delivers the goods without burning the pocket. Perfect value for money.

 

[sledger]

I had a ****ing horrendous bottle of sours the other night. Called "Tart". Just dreadful stuff.

Burgey is more Tory than the Tories. Lives the upper middle class life and won't even drink the drink of the people. Keeps harking back to the glory days of 30 years ago (Hawke/Keating/Border years). Tory through and through. No wonder he's so angry all the time. Has to deal with knowing he's a Tory at heart when he's outwardly been a Whig all his life.

 

[Burgey]

stephen bringing the coldest of hot takes. Basically the southern hemisphere's Corrin, he's that bad.

The ALP was founded about 120 mteres from my front door. There's nowhere more historically Labor than Balmain. It's the working class heartlands, and precisely where you'd expect a battler from the western suburbs like me to find themselves after they've made the most of their very considerable talents.

I like the conservative idea that if you're a labor voter you should only live in a fibro house and drink DA bottles while belting the wife for over-cooking the snags at dinner. Pretty ****ing stupid really, given all the political and economic advances in this country have come directly from the labor side of politics.
